With theie origin in the mighty Himalayas, snow fed rivers descend from icy heights, turbulent and foaming, cutting through deep gorges and canyons, as they gush towards the great indo-Gangetic plains. As they crash against huge boulders and fall churning and swirling, breaking into white water rapids, the awesome might of the river in these parts and their apparent navigational invincibility has attracted the adventurer to the challenging sport of river running. Leading river running experts have opined that Indian rivers have the potential of having some of the most exciting stretches of river running in the world.
